| - My first impression upon walking in was that the restaurant was not very well organized. They may have had employees call off, which happens, but there were only two people manning several tables and so I had to wait ten minutes to be seated.
The service was good, my bread, soup and appetizers came in a decent amount of time and all the food was very delicious and very well made. All fresh ingredients, quality foods, nothing frozen. My entree took a while to come, longer than it should have but I was still kept well informed by the young lady waiting on me. I had the Bucicini which was a type of tube spaghetti tossed with olive oil and butter, garlic, bay scallops, tiger shrimp, mussels, shaved parmesan and arugula. Truly delicious, outstanding combination of flavors and again, all fresh ingredients. The only problem I had with the food was the price. I thought $26 for this plate of food was a little overpriced. I've had pasta plates in the middle of San Diego with twice as much meat for less than $20.
Final word: the food is excellent, but they're trying to emulate a five star restuarant when they shouldn't be. They are located in a quaint part of town where their prices are too high for the area. The price range for Yelp falls under "Moderate", I thought it was more expensive than Moderate.
